From your experiences what happens if you get kicked off a project cause client doesn’t want you there. Do you usually get fired or put on another project?

Depends on why the client didn’t want you there. Performance, possibly. Personality, probably not. Unlikely it would progress to immediate termination in either case unless it’s a pattern.

I know someone who got booted because of personality and that’s exactly what the client said. Lol.

If it’s performance related you may want to start looking. Every time a client asked a team member to leave because of performance reasons. They were let go within couple of months.

Big depends - my client has rolled off strong performers because they weren’t a personality fit. If performance, maybe not let ago immediately but you’re on watch for sure

Why did you get rolled off? And even if it’s performance, a lot of times you get another project to pull yourself out of the tailspin

More context would be helpful here OP. What was the reason for rolling your off?

Usually you get a pass the first time it happens, depending on circumstances. If it happens a second or third time - it’s usually a PIP followed by an exit the next performance cycle.

Some recruiter in Accenture lined me up for an interview for a role which was not in my skillset ( by saying that this is just an evaluation exercise and they will map me to the right role) and obviously I got rejected. Now I see that I am not eligible to apply the role which I was targeting for the next 6 months. Any idea how can I get this escalated so that the recruiter ( Accenture employee) should at least be careful in future before fooling a noob like me?
